So, for a while there, I must admit that I was in kind of a slump. After finally finding myself a permanent position as an editorial assistant; my life consisted of a flurry of learning and attempting to put my best hoof forward at Baltimare. Not to mention there’s obvious tension between Trixie and myself, which is waning now thankfully as I feel myself growing more confident and able to push back when needed.

Still, I had found myself stuck mentally at the office and couldn’t seem to wriggle myself back into writing, or reading or doing any of the things that I usually enjoy. Daily, I face the daunting task of fixing grammatical catastrophes (as best as I can) prior to publication on my daily deadline. (Try saying that then times fast!) So by the time I got back home, all I wanted to do was crash into my bed.

I soon found myself stuck in a rut of the same old daily routine. I felt myself growing less and less enthusiastic about things that I usually would be thrilled about. At parties, I had even begun finding myself surrounded by people but feeling completely and utterly alone. I knew I had to do something to spice things back up.

So I’ve decided to take myself on a trip.

I had debated this trip: worried over it. Would I have enough money? Could I still pay my bills? Could I manage to get the time off from work to do it?

But my mother, the wonderful and amazing woman that she is, put all of my worries to rest.

“You’re always talking about moving out, and you’ve been paying your bills really well–why not do it before you move? Once you move, you’ll regret it if you haven’t gone.”

And I realized she was right. So, in I jumped.

Everypony–the restless writer is heading to Poland! (Krakow to be specific.) I leave in April, and I managed to get a really great deal on airfdaire. It’s been at least three years since my last trip abroad, and I will never forget it. I hope this trip to see one of my best friends and a very old city will be just as unforgettable.
